I have no idea why @Verizon keeps giving customers my mobile number (and directly transferring calls to me) but this morning I received yet another call from Verizon biz customer and I’m not mad. We ended up talking for three hours on a variety of topics. It was a pleasant call

Hey friends! If you've been professionally developing websites before 2011 and have a minute, can you answer some "back in my day" software development questions for me? Not limited to stack. I have some pre-2004 gaps that I'm trying to fill as well.

I'm inclined to take them at their word for now. If you have an app in production working fine for years and suddenly it can't interact with the database anymore, it would be reasonable in that moment to assume the DB provider changed something.

It would also be reasonable to communicate that hypothesis to customers. There's a lot more to the story, clearly, but I'm hoping for a detailed postmortem. Black swan events happen but we must learn from them. A public postmortem communicates a commitment to that learning.

Each piece of software is full of constraints. Accidentally or deliberately. In a well-designed software, constraints are as important as the features.

curious what @MichaelCarducci has to say about this since he's been all about redefining architecture around constraints lately
2
123
Whether we express it this way or not, architecture is about constraining the degrees of freedom carefully and artfully to induce the necessary and desirable system -illities. It’s a powerful paradigm because it provides reusable and composable architecture decision primatives.
2
25
The ideas around constraints shaping the -illities in systems (software and otherwise) isn’t new but under-explored in our field. Joe Yoder’s “big ball of mud” pattern shows what happens when software is a free-for-all & a complex arch like microservices have many constraints

Their chat support is usually pretty quick to set up DKIM records. It seems like there is some kind of manual step to set that up with them. The process with @SendGrid is much more streamlined and self-serve.

@Schreiberland when you were talking about mandarin numbers it reminded me of this comic. I guess early counting systems didn’t have use for quantities larger than two or three. Also, am I right in crediting/blaming you for describing pivotal moments as “Fosbury flop moments?”

It's been a Software Architecture focused day here at #gids @developersummit today. Got some thought provoking ideas about architecture and tradeoffs from @markrichardssa and @neal4d. Up next is soft skills for software architectures by @MichaelCarducci! Loving it! 💙
